 Rating:  - Little known, but a classic RPGWhen first I played Skies of Arcadia on the Sega Dreamcast, I faced an utterly daunting challenge to beat the first boss. Failed at my attempt and hadn't played in a very long while. Recently, I came to purchase the title on the GameCube and I couldn't have been happier. The game itself is a fair challenge to gamers of all ages, and it has an innovative element system unused by any other RPG. Boss battles are a little tedious, rather drawn out by the sheer HP totals of the foes. In all, I do honestly ... Read More Rating:  - Still My Favorite RPG of All TimeSkies of Arcadia is a game with a real sense of exploration. The game shuns most cliches of plot and character development by including memorable characters you actually care about rather than cartoon cliches. The gameplay and combat is simple and but addictive and memorable. The game continually expands, dishing up new types of gameplay and unique areas to explore in your airship. Ship combat and the crew system further enhances the variety. Keep in mind that this GameCube remake tones ...

The first day I played it, I spent 6 hours playing and not knowing where the time went. After I beat the game, I, of course, moved on with my life playing games, going to school, etc.. Still, I haven't found a game more satisfying to play than this game. But enough reminiscing, let me tell you why I love this game. First off, the story. I know several elements of the game's story are a bit cliche, such ... Read More Rating: - A flawed masterpiece...Standard turn-based RPG battle system, check. Damsel and world in distress, check. Numerous random battles, ugh. Yet, this game transcends the sum its parts. The story is absorbing, the sail, explore, and discover new worlds aspect is engrossing, and the playable characters (yup, all three of them) are endearing. Isn't that why RPG enthusiasts get such a kick out of this genre. It's the disparate, loner characters, banding together and forming a family, and along the way (if the game is any ...

I can't answer that question for other people as everyone has their own taste and their own reasons, but i can tell you the reason why i play rpg's is because i like to feel like i am in a world of fantasy and adventure, a world where anything is possible and where the sound of the wind resonating quitely against the breeze preordains a future of uncertain destiny. This game brings the gamer a feeling of adventure the whole way through and throws you right into the story. You start as ... Read More |
